youngest daughter of Mrs. J. Johnston,
formerly of Morris, to Wesley Wallace,
both of Newbridge. The bride was at-
tired in a cream costume of the finest
material trimmed with cream silk lace
with the oonveutionnlbridal veil of tulle.
She wore on her head a wreath of natural
white flowers and carried in her hand a
beautiful, large bouquet of a similar kind.
The bridesmaid was Miss Emily Wallace
sister of the groom and the bridegroom
was supported by R. A.Johneton,brother
of the bride. The oeremony was con-
ducted by Rev. A. L. Russell, M. A., B.
A., uncle of the bride, assisted by Rev.
Daniel Wright, her grand uncle, on the
pleasant lawn in connection with the
residence of Mrs. Johnston. After it was
over and the wedded pair had reoeived
the good wishes and congratulations of all
present, they were conducted to another
part of the lawn and wore followed by the
invited guests to the number of about two
hundred, Here all were charmed by the
scene presented bo their sight. There
under the boughs of fruit trees, were
tables spread with ohina,silver, flowers
and better than all there, the most ap-
petizing delicacies, The rich repast was
was duly appreciated and afterwards a
very enjoyable evening was spent with in-
strumental and vocal music and oonver.

About eleven o'olook the people present

ing for the mutual happiness of the
nutted couple. The high esteem fn whiob

mementoes which she received. Never
before in the nuptial history of this
